Brief Description: Final Install Left Baffles & Oil Cooler

I decided to use steel fittings on the oil cooler rather than aluminum fittings. I used Fuelube on the threads and 90 degree elbows for both fittings. Both the front and aft baffles were installed on the engine for the final time and then I bolted the oil cooler in place and connected the hoses. Although I don't have a picture of this, I also painted a 2nd coat of white high-gloss rustoleum enamel on the inside of the top cowl.
